Abstract: Abstract This arc model was motivated by the need to model arcs during the failure of a large superconducting magnet following an unmitigated quench. During a quench, resistive heating raises the conductor and insulator temperature.… read more here.

Abstract: In practical arc ignition processes of high-current vacuum arcs, despite the calibration effect of the axial magnetic field, the strong magnetic constriction force still causes the arc to contract. Additionally, during the actual electrode opening… read more here.
